Have you tried DreamUp with/without network connection?

Hello,

Yes, I tried with and without the network. I even used a cross network cable to connect the dreambox directly to the PC.
I tried to press the "s" key several times when the dreambox is booting but that did not work => impossible to enter into the bios.
I also tried "dreamenum 0.9" (as explained in the links given above) but dreamenum cannot finds the dreambox on the network (PC <-> dreambox with cross network cable).

At the end of my tests, I install a dhcp server with a tftp server on my PC. I configure the DHCP server to provide a tftp server address and the official nfi image.

I see the dm500+ receives an IP and then starts the download of the nfi image via tftp. When the transfer is successful (tftp code 0), I see 2 lines with elf ... something. After some minutes I have this character "†" appearing several times: ††††††††
What does it mean?

Here after are the messages captured with hyperterminal. We see the tftp transfer but nothing happen afterwards
